John F. Kennedy Elementary School

💗 Pink for a Purpose!💗
Our JFK students showed their support for Breast Cancer Awareness Month by wearing pink! 🎀🌸
Today, we came together to spread awareness, show support, and remind one another of the importance of hope, strength, and caring for our community.

🎉🐷 4th Annual Showmanship Clinic & Toy Drive Success! 🎁✨ The Edcouch-Elsa FFA hosted its 4th Annual Showmanship Clinic on December 3, 2024, and it was a huge success! 🙌 Presented by Mr. Joe Carter, this event brought students together to showcase their hogs and develop their showmanship skills. Buckles were awarded to outstanding participants in four divisions: Seniors, Intermediate, Junior Intermediate, and Junior, including Grand Champion, Reserve Grand Champion, and Third Overall Showman. 🏆👏 This clinic wasn’t just about showmanship—it also served as our annual toy drive, where participants donated new toys to bring holiday cheer to students in the Edcouch-Elsa School District. 🎄❤️ A big thank you to Mr. JJ Garza, Mr. AJ Garza, and the entire FFA chapter for their hard work in making this event a memorable experience for everyone involved. 💪✨ Thank you to all who participated and supported this event. Together, we’re making a difference—both in the arena and in our community! 💛💙

Students in Mrs. Corpus’s class use their note-taking strategies to identify the title, genre, predictions and key ideas. They then used their notes to create an essay using ECR strategies.

Attendance Matters!
